Padres confirm Dinelson Lamet will be promoted Thursday
San Diego Padres pitching prospect Dinelson Lamet will be called up to start Thursday against the New York Mets, manager Andy Green has confirmed.
What It Means:
The 24-year-old right-hander needs to work a little on his command (12.0 percent walk in the minors this season), but Lamet offers all sorts of long-term fantasy upside if things go well in Thursday's debut.
Lamet has looked good in eight starts for Triple-A El Paso in 2017, with a 3.23 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 29.9 percent strikeout rate through 39 innings pitched.
